Log switching

You can assign a set of logs for a each trace when submitting the trace request. Log switching to the next available data set occurs when:

  • A log data set is full
  • A time, such as midnight, is specified with the trace request
  • You request an immediate log switch with the I command on the Current Traces display

If an archive started task was specified on the trace request, that STC is run. It can:

  • REPRO a copy of the data to tape or another disk data set
  • Execute a step to flag the data set for reuse
  • Submit a job to print reports

If no data set is available and overwriting logs was specified on the trace request, logging switches with the oldest trace data set.
